Just wondering if anyone has stroked there RSX S? If they have how bout some feedback on things like install time, fuel economy, and engine wear? Preciate it.

 

Not many stroked K20A2's out there, as a matter of fact the only ones I know are not daily drivers. But your looking at around 5 grand just in parts after the kit, necessary gaskets, studs, etc.

Install time is going to vary greatly, its a tremendous amount of work. Not to mention machining of the block.

To give you an idea, upon receiving my block from Golden Eagle I began measuring clearances. After ordering bearings, seals, gaskets, and a new oil pump it took me 10 to 12 hours to assemble the entire bottom end. This was triple checking clearances. Then one weekend by myself to pull the motor, swap heads, install the clutch, and reinstall. Your looking at 2-3 grand just in labor.

Go supercharger, DIY on the install and be happy w/ the same amount of power for far less. Unless your into the NA respect thing, then stick w/ the top end for know.

 

Thanks for the info. JW, what kit did you use?

toda has some

 

I had heard there is a way to use an h23 crank. Is this really the case?

 

I've heard that too but never seen any proof at all.

The F22C crank will work with slight modification to the snout. Castillo does the service for a few hundred bucks if your interested. But buying a prebuilt kit by IPS or Toda is the way to go. A lot of engineering went into those kits, **** you would have to determine on your own.

And I didn't install a stroker kit on my motor, just sleeved the block and installed forged pistons and rods.
